12-year-old Cooper Finnegan
came up with an idea to remember his beloved dog Bodie after his passing. He decided to write a book called
The True Adventures of Me,
highlighting Bodie's unpredictable antics. The book follows a dog who was not the dog the family planned on adopting.

Ten years ago Bob Downey, the director of the Capitol Humane Society called the family saying he had a puppy who wouldn't last long, so they rushed down to the adoption center where they found a
90-pound border collie, black lab mix
that was skinny after being a stray for eight months. The family took him home and that's when Bodie's antics began.
